Nobody gets on my nerves quite like the muscle car "only drive a V8" douchebags that tend to drive Camaros, Mustangs and Challengers.
I agree completely about the Z being a drivers car. I haven't even found the limit of the cars grip yet as I don't seem to have the balls to! On my way home from work there's this sick little high speed chicane and when I'm lucky enough to get to it with no one in front of me I like to test myself a bit. No matter how fast I've hit it I've never even heard a chirp from the tires. It just digs in man. Which tells me I'd have to hit that thing going a good bit faster than I'm comfortable with to really reach the cars grip limits. And that would be a disastrous spot to lose control...
